Questions
Which themes appear in both sources?
What new information have surveys added beyond what was already written in the academic literature?
How do themes vary between fishing vs. shipping contexts?
How do themes vary with positionality of the respondent (surveys only)?
Result 1: Bridges and barriers according to review and survey
Here I’ve presented three options for presenting the themes and sub-themes identified in the review and surveys. I’d love feedback on which option or combination of options best visualize the codes! Depending on your feedback, I’ll then spend time cleaning up the best option.
Option 1 - Sankey diagram
Plot below only presents the review themes and sub-themes. If this is the best way to communicate the codes, I will add a diagram visualizing the survey codes.

Result 2: Frequencies according to review and survey
Code appearance frequencies across all bridge OR barrier codes. The proportions reported in these figures represent the percent of codes that theme or sub-theme comprises.
